Arizonan gets life sentences for molesting 11-year-old girl
A Kingman, Ariz., man convicted of molesting an 11-year-old girl was sentenced Tuesday to three consecutive life prison terms.
The punishment for Robert Monahan, 38, is mandatory under Arizona law for convictions of sexual conduct with a minor, classified as dangerous crimes against children.
Prosecutor Megan McCoy said Monahan began molesting the girl when she was 11, and the abuse escalated after the victim turned 12 in 2002.
